Re: Re: Runtime Hash Variable access

%ABCDev = qw /A 1 B 2 C 3/;

Technically, that *defines* (assigns to) %ABCDev, but it doesn't *declare* it. You declare a variable with my, our or use vars.

You are right. Mainly ment that the wanted hash %ABCDev was empty due that assingment happened to scalar and not hash. And that using 'use strict' and 'use warnings' would have caught the mistake. I just don't always think that much about words than meaning (which in some cases can be somewhat obscure due to my lack of attention to words :D).	[reply]
